IPL 2019 | Twitter blasts R Ashwin for Nicholas Pooran's batting position; praises Sam Curran's brilliant knock
After losing valuable wickets of Chris Gayle and KL Rahul, Nicholas Pooran stepped in and scored a quickfire 48. But it was Sam Curran's brilliant 57 off just 27 balls that helped Kings XI Punjab reach a total of 183. Twitterati slammed Ashwin for playing Pooran's wrong position and praised Curran.
What a player!
Nicholas Pooran has more sixes than fours in his T20 career. Its clearly evident in this IPL season.

Close call!
Was just about to tweet a 💯 for the taking here for Pooran. Good thing I bailed out in time 🙊

The batting position made all the difference!
Pooran being batted where he should. No wonder he is contributing better.

Maybe this is the reason why they haven't qualified for the playoffs!
Pooran is a talent. Unfortunately all #KXIP kept doing was to chop and change the team. #KXIPvKKR

Pro jinxer!
Pooran's Century Loading

Interesting observation! Now KXIP can drop Rahul and play Pooran without wasting a foreign quota!
If KL Rahul balded prematurely and was a bit dark, he would look like Nicholas Pooran #KXIPvKKR

Literally!
Sam Curran breathes life into the game. What-a-kid

That one dropped catch might've just cost KKR the match!
Baby-faced Sam Curran is an extremely talented cricketer. Costly miss by Rinku Singh off Narine when Curran was on 17. He compounded KKR bowlers' misery and propelled his side to a competitive score. Its a good strip & KKR has an explosive lineup. Should be a good chase#KXIPvKKR pic.twitter.com/LeiRmuDHgt

Well said!
Sam Curran's batting like how KXIP would have wanted David Miller to bat in the death this season.#IPL2019 #KXIPvKKR

Already?
Sam Curran > David Miller

And I am not even considering Curran's bowling abilities right now #KXIPvKKR
KKR should've done their research!
Curran continuing the legacy of making teams pay for dropping your catch.

First against India in England and now against KKR. #KXIPvKKR
